Warning

To prevent bodily injury when mounting or servicing this unit in a rack, you must take special precautions to ensure that the system remains stable. The following guidelines are provided to ensure your safety:

•This unit should be mounted at the bottom of the rack if it is the only unit in the rack.

•When mounting this unit in a partially filled rack, load the rack from the bottom to the top with the heaviest component at the bottom of the rack.

•If the rack is provided with stabilizing devices, install the stabilizers before mounting or servicing the unit in the rack. Statement 1006

Warning The ONS 15454 must have 1 inch (25.4 mm) of airspace below the installed shelf assembly to allow air flow to the fan intake. The air ramp (the angled piece of sheet metal on top of the shelf assembly) provides this spacing and should not be modified in any way.

Note The shelf, the air ramp, and the E1-75/120 conversion panel ship with the ETSI mounting brackets installed as needed for installation in an ETSI rack. If you want to install the node in a 19-inch (482.6-mm) rack, the ETSI mounting brackets of the shelf and the air ramp need to be replaced with the 19-inch (482.6-mm) mounting brackets that shipped in the ship kit.

Caution Use only the fastening hardware provided with the ONS 15454 ANSI to prevent loosening, deterioration, and electromechanical corrosion of the hardware and joined material.
Caution When mounting the ONS 15454 in a frame with a nonconductive coating (such as paint, lacquer, or enamel) either use the thread-forming screws provided with the ONS 15454 ANSI ship kit, or remove the coating from the threads to ensure electrical continuity.

Step 1 Remove the screws that attach the mounting bracket to the side of the shelf assembly.

Step 2 Flip the detached mounting bracket upside down.

Text imprinted on the mounting bracket will now also be upside down.

Step 3 Place the widest side of the mounting bracket flush against the shelf assembly (see Figure 1-1).

The narrow side of the mounting bracket should be towards the front of the shelf assembly. Text imprinted on the mounting bracket should be visible and upside down.

Step 5 Insert the screws that were removed in Step 1 and tighten them.

Step 6 Repeat the task for the mounting bracket on the opposite side.

Step 7 Return to your originating procedure (NTP).

DLP-G4 Install the External Brackets and Air Filter (ANSI Only)

Purpose

This task installs the external brackets and air filter on the bottom of the shelf rather than below the fan-tray assembly. Installing the external brackets and air filter on the bottom of the shelf enables access to the air filter without removing the fan-tray assembly. This task applies to the ONS 15454 ANSI shelf only.

Note If you choose not to install the brackets, install the air filter by sliding it into the compartment at the bottom of the shelf assembly. Each time you remove and reinstall the air filter in the future, you must first remove the fan-tray assembly. Do not install an air filter in both filter locations on any shelf assembly.

Step 1 With the fan-tray assembly removed, place the ONS 15454 facedown on a flat surface.

Note Although the filter will work if it is installed with either side facing up, Cisco recommends that you install it with the metal bracing facing up to preserve the surface of the filter.

Step 2 Locate the three screw holes that run along the left and right sides of the bottom of the shelf assembly.

Step 3 Secure each bracket to the bottom of the shelf assembly using the screws (48-0003) provided in the backplane standoff kit (53-0795-XX).

Each bracket has a filter stopper and a flange on one end. Make sure to attach the brackets with the stoppers and flanges facing the rear of the shelf assembly (the top, if the ONS 15454 is facedown during installation).

Figure 1-2 illustrates bottom bracket installation. If you do not use the brackets, in the future you must remove the fan-tray assembly before removing the air filter. The brackets enable you to clean and replace the air filter without removing the fan-tray assembly.

Note The ONS 15454 ETSI requires 616.5 mm (24.24 inch) minimum of vertical rack space and 25 mm (1 inch) below the installed shelf assembly to allow air flow to the fan intake. If a second ONS 15454 ETSI is installed above a shelf assembly, the air ramp between the shelves provides space for air flow. To ensure that the mounting is secure, use two to four M6 mounting screws for each side of the shelf assembly. A shelf assembly should be mounted at the bottom of the rack if it is the only unit in the rack.

Step 1 Verify that the proper fuse and alarm panel has been installed in the top mounting space. If a fuse and alarm panel is not present, you must install one according to manufacturer instructions:

Step 3 Using the hex tool that shipped with the assembly, install the two temporary set screws into the holes that will not be used to mount the shelf. Let the set screws protrude sufficiently to hold the mounting brackets.

Step 4 Lift the shelf assembly to the desired position in the rack and set it on the screws.

Step 5 Align the screw holes on the mounting brackets with the mounting holes in the rack.

Step 6 Using the Phillips screwdriver, install one mounting screw in each side of the assembly.

Step 7 When the shelf assembly is secured to the rack, install the remaining mounting screws.

Note Use at least one set of the horizontal screw slots on the shelf assembly to prevent slippage.

Note The ONS 15454 ETSI requires 616.5 mm (24.24 inch) minimum of vertical rack space and 25 mm (1 inch) below the installed shelf assembly to allow air flow to the fan intake. If a second ONS 15454 ETSI is installed above a shelf assembly, the air ramp between the shelves provides space for air flow. To ensure that the mounting is secure, use two to four M6 mounting screws for each side of the shelf assembly. A shelf assembly should be mounted at the bottom of the rack if it is the only unit in the rack.

Note The ONS 15454 ANSI must have one inch (25.4 mm) of airspace below the installed shelf assembly to allow air flow to the fan intake. If a second ONS 15454 is installed underneath a shelf assembly, the air ramp on top of the bottom shelf assembly provides the desired space. However, if the ONS 15454 is installed above third-party equipment, you must provide a minimum spacing of one inch (25.4 mm) between the third-party shelf assembly and the bottom of the ONS 15454. The third-party equipment must not vent heat upward into the ONS 15454.

Step 1 Verify that the proper fuse and alarm panel has been installed in the top mounting space. If a fuse and alarm panel is not present, you must install one according to manufacturer's instructions:

Step 3 Using the hex tool that shipped with the assembly, install the two set screws into the holes that will not be used to mount the shelf. Let the set screws protrude sufficiently to hold the mounting brackets.

Step 4 Lift the shelf assembly to the desired position in the rack.

Step 5 Align the screw holes on the mounting brackets with the mounting holes in the rack.

Step 6 Have one person hold the shelf assembly in place while the other person uses the Phillips screwdriver to install one mounting screw in each side of the assembly.

Step 7 When the shelf assembly is secured to the rack, install the remaining mounting screws.

Note Use at least one set of the horizontal screw slots on the shelf assembly to prevent slippage.

Note A standard ETSI rack can hold three ONS 15454 ETSI shelf assemblies and two air ramps. When mounting a shelf assembly in a partially filled rack, load the rack from the bottom to the top with the heaviest component at the bottom of the rack. If the rack is provided with stabilizing devices, install the stabilizers before mounting or servicing the unit in the rack.

Note The ONS 15454 ETSI requires 616.5 mm (24.24 inch) minimum of vertical rack space and 25 mm (1 inch) below the installed shelf assembly to allow air flow to the fan intake. If a second ONS 15454 ETSI is installed above a shelf assembly, the air ramp between the shelves provides space for air flow. When using third-party equipment above the ONS 15454 ETSI, provide a minimum of 25 mm (1 inch) between the third-party unit and the bottom of the ONS 15454 ETSI. The third-party equipment must not vent heat upward into the ONS 15454 ETSI.

Note The ONS 15454 ANSI must have one inch (25.4 mm) of airspace below the installed shelf assembly to allow air flow to the fan intake. If a second ONS 15454 is installed underneath a shelf assembly, the air ramp on top of the bottom shelf assembly provides the desired space. However, if the ONS 15454 is installed above third-party equipment, you must provide a minimum spacing of one inch (25.4 mm) between the third-party shelf assembly and the bottom of the ONS 15454. The third-party equipment must not vent heat upward into the ONS 15454.

Step 1 Verify that the proper fuse and alarm panel has been installed in the top mounting space. If a fuse and alarm panel is not present, you must install one according to manufacturer's instructions:

The air ramp is needed if you install more than one ONS 15454 ETSI shelf in a rack. To ensure that the air ramp is secure, use one or two M6 mounting screws for each side of the shelf assembly. Figure 1-5 shows how to mount an air ramp in the rack.

Step 3 Return to your originating procedure (NTP).

NTP-G4 Open and Remove the FMEC Cover (ETSI Only)

Purpose

This procedure opens and removes the FMEC cover on the ONS 15454 ETSI. The ONS 15454 ETSI has a screw-in panel over the EFCA. The FMEC cover protects the FMEC cards.

Step 3 Lift the panel by the bottom to remove it from the shelf assembly.

Step 4 Store the panel for later use. Attach the backplane cover(s) whenever electrical interface assemblies (EIAs) are not installed.

Step 5 Return to your originating procedure (NTP).

NTP-G6 Install the MIC-A/P and MIC-T/C/P FMECs (ETSI Only)

Purpose

This procedure installs the MIC-A/P and the MIC-T/C/P, which are a type of FMEC installed in the EFCA. The EFCA is located at the top of the ONS 15454 ETSI shelf. It provides connection for installing power, external alarms, timing input and output, and craft interface terminals.This procedure applies to the ETSI shelf only.

Warning Voltage is present on the backplane when the system is operating. To reduce risk of an electric shock, keep hands and fingers out of the power supply bays and backplane areas. Statement 166

Caution Always use the supplied ESD wristband when working with a powered ONS 15454 ETSI. Plug the wristband cable into the ESD jack located on the lower-right outside edge of the shelf assembly.

Note The ONS 15454 ETSI EFCA has 12 FMEC slots numbered sequentially from left to right beginning with Slot 18. Slots 18 to 22 and 25 to 29 provide electrical connections for the corresponding slots, so they are unnecessary in dense wavelength division multiplexing (DWDM) applications.

Step 1 Ensure you are installing the FMECs in the correct slot:

•FMEC Slot 23 supports the MIC-A/P.

The MIC-A/P card provides connection for the BATTERY B input, one of the two possible redundant power supply inputs. It also provides connection for eight alarm outputs (coming from the TCC2/TCC2P card), sixteen alarm inputs, and four configurable alarm inputs/outputs.

•FMEC Slot 24 supports the MIC-C/T/P.

The MIC-C/T/P card provides connection for the BATTERY A input, one of the two possible redundant power supply inputs. It also provides connection for system management serial port, system management LAN port, and system timing inputs and outputs.

Step 2 Hold the FMEC by the faceplate.

Step 3 Slide the FMEC along the guide rails into the desired FMEC slot or slots.

Step 4 Push the FMEC gently into the connector. The ONS 15454 ETSI FMECs plug into electrical connectors on the back panel of the shelf assembly when the screws are tightened. Figure 1-13 shows FMEC installation.

Warning Before performing any of the following procedures, ensure that power is removed from the DC circuit. Statement 1003

Warning This equipment is intended to be grounded. Ensure that the host is connected to earth ground during normal use. Statement 39

Warning Use copper conductors only. Statement 1025

Warning Connect the unit only to DC power source that complies with the safety extra-low voltage (SELV) requirements in IEC 60950 based safety standards. Statement 1033

Warning This product requires short-circuit (overcurrent) protection, to be provided as part of the building installation. Install only in accordance with national and local wiring regulations. Statement 1045

Warning A readily accessible two-poled disconnect device must be incorporated in the fixed wiring. Statement 1022

Warning This unit might have more than one power supply connection. All connections must be removed to de-energize the unit. Statement 1028

Caution Always use the supplied ESD wristband when working with a powered ONS 15454. Plug the wristband cable into the ESD jack located on the lower-right outside edge of the shelf assembly.

Step 1 Verify that the correct fuse and alarm panel is installed in the top mounting space:

Warning This equipment must be grounded. Never defeat the ground conductor or operate the equipment in the absence of a suitably installed ground conductor. Contact the appropriate electrical inspection authority or an electrician if you are uncertain that suitable grounding is available. Statement 1024

Step 1 Use a wire-stripping tool to remove approximately19 mm (0.75 inch) of the covering from the end of the grounding wire.

Step 2 Insert the stripped end of the grounding wire into the open-end of the grounding lug.

Step 3 Use the crimping tool to secure the grounding wire in two different places in the grounding lug.

Step 4 Locate the grounding receptacle on the side panel of the shelf (Figure 1-14).

Step 5 Place the grounding lug against the grounding receptacle on the side panel of the shelf.

Step 6 Insert one of the screws through the locking washer and through the hole in the grounding lug. Insert the screw into the threaded holes on the right side of the shelf. Ensure that the grounding lug does not interfere with other system hardware or rack equipment.

Step 1 Verify that the office ground cable (#6 AWG stranded) is connected to the top of the bay according to local site practice.

Step 2 Attach one end of the shelf ground cable (#10 AWG) to the right side of the backplane ground nut. See Figure 1-15 for the location of the ground on the backplane.

Note When terminating a frame ground, use the Kepnut provided with the ONS 15454 and tighten it to a torque specification of 31 in-lb. The Kepnut provides a frame ground connection that minimizes the possibility of loosening caused by rotation during installation and maintenance activity. The type of prevention the kep nut provides for the frame ground connection is inherently provided by the terminal block for battery and battery return connections.

Step 1 Verify that the MIC-A/P FMEC is installed in Slot 23 and the MIC-C/T/P FMEC is installed in Slot 24 of the EFCA.

Step 2 Attach the connector on the end of the power cable to the power FMEC.

Step 3 Tighten the screws of the connector on the power cable.

Step 4 Connect the power cable to the fuse panel or power source. Use the pin connections in Table 1-1. The conductor (green with yellow stripes) is used for secondary grounding such as grounding to the rack.

Warning When installing or replacing the unit, the ground connection must always be made first and disconnected last. Statement 1046

Note The battery return connection is treated as DC-1, as defined in Telcordia GR-1089-CORE Issue 3.

Note If the system loses power or both TCC2/TCC2P cards are reset and the system is not provisioned to get the time from a Network Time Protocol/Simple Network Time Protocol (NTP/SNTP) server, you must reset the ONS 15454 clock. After powering down, the date defaults to January 1, 1970, 00:04:15. To reset the clock, see the "NTP-G24 Set Up Name, Date, Time, and Contact Information" procedure. If you are using the TCC2/TCC2P cards, the system clock will run for up to three hours. In this case, no action would be required.

Step 1 Connect the office power according to the fuse panel engineering specifications.

Step 2 Measure and cut the cables as needed to reach the ONS 15454 from the fuse panel. Figure 1-16 shows the ONS 15454 power terminals.

Step 3 Dress the power according to local site practice.

Figure 1-16 Cisco ONS 15454 Power Terminals

Step 4 Remove or loosen the #8 power terminal screws on the ONS 15454. To avoid confusion, label the cables connected to the BAT1/RET1 (A) power terminals as 1 and the cables connected to the BAT2/RET2 (B) power terminals as 2.

Note Use only pressure terminal connectors, such as ring and fork types, when terminating the battery, battery return, and frame ground conductors.

Caution Before you make any crimp connections, coat all bare conductors (battery, battery return, and frame ground) with an appropriate antioxidant compound. Bring all unplated connectors, braided strap, and bus bars to a bright finish, then coat with an antioxidant before you connect them. You do not need to prepare tinned, solder-plated, or silver-plated connectors and other plated connection surfaces, but always keep them clean and free of contaminants.
Caution When terminating power, return, and frame ground, do not use soldering lug, screwless (push-in) connectors, quick-connect, or other friction-fit connectors.

Step 5 Strip 1/2 inch (12.7 mm) of insulation from all power cables that you will use.

Step 6 Crimp the lugs onto the ends of all power leads.

Note When terminating battery and battery return connections as shown in Figure 1-16, follow a torque specification of 10 in-lb.

Step 7 Terminate the return 1 lead to the RET1 backplane terminal. Use oxidation-prevention grease to keep the connections noncorrosive.

Step 8 Terminate the negative 1 lead to the negative BAT1 backplane power terminal. Use oxidation prevention grease to keep connections noncorrosive.

Step 9 If you use redundant power leads, terminate the return 2 lead to the positive RET2 terminal on the ONS 15454. Terminate the negative 2 lead to the negative BAT2 terminal on the ONS 15454. Use oxidation-preventative grease to keep connections noncorrosive.

Step 10 Route the cables out below the power terminals using the plastic cable clamp, as shown in Figure 1-16.

Step 11 Return to your originating procedure (NTP).

DLP-G19 Turn On and Verify Office Power

Purpose

This task measures the power to verify correct power and returns for the ONS 15454 shelf.

Caution Do not apply power to the shelf assembly until you complete all installation steps.

Step 1 Using a voltmeter, verify the office battery and ground at the following points on the fuse and alarm panel:

a. To verify the power, place the black test lead of the voltmeter to the frame ground. Place the red test lead on the A-side connection and verify that it is between -40.5 VDC and -57 VDC. Place the red test lead on the B-side connection and verify that it is between -40.5 VDC and -57 VDC.

Note The voltages -40.5 VDC and -57 VDC are, respectively, the minimum and maximum voltages required to power the chassis.

b. To verify the ground, place the black test lead of the voltmeter to the frame ground. Place the red test lead on the A-side return ground and verify that no voltage is present. Place the red test lead on the B-side return ground and verify that no voltage is present.

Step 2 Insert the fuse into the fuse position according to site practice. The fuse rating must not exceed 30A.

Step 3 At the bottom rear of the shelf assembly, remove the cover panel to access the power connections.

Step 4 Using a voltmeter, verify the ONS 15454 shelf for -48 VDC battery and ground:

a. To verify the A-side of the shelf, place the black lead of the voltmeter to the frame ground. Place the red test lead to the BAT1 (A-side battery connection) red cable. Verify that it reads between -40.5 VDC and -57 VDC. Then place the red test lead of the voltmeter to the RET1 (A-side return ground) black cable and verify that no voltage is present.

Note The voltages -40.5 VDC and -57 VDC are, respectively, the minimum and maximum voltages required to power the chassis.

b. To verify the B-side of the shelf, place the black test lead of the voltmeter to the frame ground. Place the red test lead to the BAT2 (B-side battery connection) red cable. Verify that it reads between -40.5 VDC and -57 VDC. Then place the red test lead of the voltmeter to the RET2 (B-side return ground) black cable and verify that no voltage is present.

Caution Do not operate an ONS 15454 without a fan-tray air filter. A fan-tray air filter is mandatory, except for ONS 15454 ANSI applications in an outside plant cabinet.
Caution You must place the edge of the air filter flush against the front of the fan-tray assembly compartment when installing the fan tray on top of the filter. Failure to do so could result in damage to the filter, the fan tray, or both.
Caution Do not force a fan-tray assembly into place. Doing so can damage the connectors on the fan tray and/or the connectors on the back panel of the shelf assembly.

Note Error messages appear on the TCC2/TCC2P card, the fan-tray LED, and in Cisco Transport Controller (CTC) when the fan-tray assembly is removed from the shelf or when one fan is not working.

Note If you are installing the ONS 15454 in an outside plant cabinet, remove the air filter to provide maximum cooling capabilities and to comply with Telcordia GR-487-CORE.

Note To install the fan-tray assembly, it is not necessary to move any of the fiber-storage facilities.

Step 1 Install the air filter. The air filter can be installed internally between the fan tray and shelf assembly, or externally by mounting the air filter bracket on the bottom of the shelf assembly. Slide the air filter into the bracket.

NTP-G9 Install the Alarm Expansion Panel (ANSI Only)

Purpose

This procedure installs an AEP onto the 15454-SA-ANSI or 15454-SA-HD shelf backplane. The AEP provides alarm contacts (32 inputs, 16 outputs) in addition to the 16 provided by the AIC-I card. Typically, the AEP is preinstalled when ordered with the ONS 15454; however, the AEP can be ordered separately. The AIC-I card must be installed before you can provision the alarm contacts enabled by the AEP.

Note The AIC-I card provides direct alarm contacts (external alarm inputs and external control outputs). In the ANSI shelf, these AIC-I alarm contacts are routed through the backplane to wire-wrap pins accessible from the back of the shelf. When you install an AEP, the direct AIC-I alarm contacts cannot be used. Only the AEP alarm contacts can be used.

Step 1 Remove the two backplane screws. Replace the two screws with standoffs. Insert the longer standoff on the left, and the shorter standoff on the right (Figure 1-19).

Figure 1-19 Replace Backplane Screws with Standoffs

Step 2 Attach the remaining two standoffs on either side of the backplane (Figure 1-20).

Step 3 Position the AEP board over the standoffs.

Figure 1-20 Installing Standoffs and the AEP

Step 4 Insert and tighten three screws to secure the AEP to the backplane.

Step 5 Connect the AEP cable to the backplane and AEP:

a. Connect the 10 colored wires to the wire-wrap pins on the backplane. Figure 1-21 shows where the cable wires are connected. Table 1-2 shows AEP and AIC-I signals that each wire carries

b. Plug the other end of the AEP cable into AEP connector port. The brown pin is on the top.

NTP-G10 Attach Wires to Alarm, Timing, LAN, and Craft Pin Connections

Purpose

This procedure installs alarm, timing, LAN, and craft wires on the ONS 15454 shelf. These wires are attached to the mechanical interface card (MIC) FMECs on the ETSI shelf and are attached to the backplane on the ANSI shelf.

Step 1 Using 0.51 mm² or 0.64 mm² (#22 or #24 AWG) wires, connect the alarm and control wires on the appropriate pins of the DB-62 connector. The pin connectors, signal names, and functions are listed in Table 1-3.

DLP-G21 Install Timing Wires on the MIC-C/T/P (ETSI Only)

Purpose

This task installs the timing cables on the MIC-C/T/P FMEC.

Tools/Equipment

75-ohm coaxial cable with a 1.0/2.3 miniature coax connector on the MIC-C/T/P side

Step 1 Using coaxial cable with 1.0/2.3 miniature coax connectors, connect the clock cable to the appropriate connector on the faceplate of the MIC-C/T/P.

Step 2 Gently push the cable with the 1.0/2.3 miniature coax connector down until the cable connector slides into the 1.0/2.3 miniature coax connector on the faceplate with a click.

The MIC-C/T/P provides 1.0/2.3 miniature coax connectors that are used for timing input and output. The top connectors are for "A" (BITS-1) timing, and the bottom connectors are for "B" (BITS-2) timing. In each case, the left connector is the input and the right connector is the output. The input connectors for timing provide a 75-ohm termination. System cables are available that can convert timing clocks from 75 ohms to 100/120 ohms. Table 1-4 shows MIC-C/T/P pin assignments.

A high-impedance option (> 3 kilo-ohms or greater) is possible through a jumper on the MIC-C/T/P FMEC. You can change the top timing input to high impedance by removing the jumper on P3 of the MIC-C/T/P FMEC. You can change the bottom timing input to high impedance by removing the jumper on P2 on the MIC-C/T/P FMEC.

Note Rather than using the LAN connection port on the MIC-C/T/P, you can use the LAN connection port on the TCC2/TCC2P card if preferred. Use either the MIC-C/T/P connection or the TCC2/TCC2P card connection. You cannot use the LAN connection port on the MIC-C/T/P and the LAN connection port on the TCC2/TCC2P card simultaneously; however, it is possible for you to make a direct connection from a computer to the LAN connection port on the TCC2/TCC2P card while the LAN connection port on the MIC-C/T/P is in use as long as the computer connected directly to the TCC2/TCC2P card is not connected to the same LAN.

Step 1 Using 0.51 mm² or 0.64 mm² (#22 or #24 AWG) wire or CAT-5 UTP Ethernet cable, connect the wires to the RJ-45 connector according to Table 1-5.

Step 1 Using 100-ohm shielded BITS clock cable pair #22 or #24 AWG (0.51 mm² or 0.64 mm²) twisted-pair T1-type wires, wrap the alarm wires on the appropriate wire-wrap pins according to local site practice. Ground the shield of the BITS Input cable at the BITS end. For BITS Output, wrap the ground shield of the BITS cable to the frame ground pin (FG1) located below the column of BITS pins.

Figure 1-22 shows alarm pin assignments for the AIC-I in the Release 3.4 or higher ONS 15454 backplane, and Figure 1-23 calls out the external alarm pins on that backplane.

Note Rather than using the LAN wires, you can use the LAN connection port on the TCC2/TCC2P if preferred. Use either the backplane connection or the TCC2/TCC2P front connection. You cannot use the LAN backplane pins and the LAN connection port on the TCC2/TCC2P simultaneously; however, it is possible for you to make a direct connection from a computer to the LAN connection port on the TCC2/TCC2P while the LAN backplane pins are in use as long as the computer that is connected directly to the TCC2/TCC2P is not connected to the same LAN.

Step 1 Using #22 or #24 AWG (0.51 mm² or 0.64 mm²) wire or CAT-5 UTP Ethernet cable, wrap the wires on the appropriate wire-wrap pins according to local site practice.

Caution Cross talk might result if both receive (Rx) and transmit (Tx) pins connect on the same twisted pair of wires from the CAT-5 cable. The two Tx pins need to be on one twisted pair, and the two Rx pins need to be on another twisted pair.

A frame ground pin is located beneath each pin field (FG2 for the LAN pin field). Wrap the ground shield of the LAN interface cable to the frame ground pin. Table 1-7 shows the LAN pin assignments.

Note The TCC2/TCC2P does not support Ethernet polarity detection. If your Ethernet connection has incorrect polarity (this can only occur with cables that have the receive wire pairs flipped), a Lan Connection Polarity Reversed condition (LAN-POL-REV) is raised. This condition usually occurs during an upgrade or initial node deployment. To correct the situation, ensure that your Ethernet cable has the correct mapping of the wire-wrap pins.

Step 2 Return to your originating procedure (NTP).

DLP-G26 Install the TL1 Craft Interface Wires (ANSI Only)

Purpose

This task installs the TL1 craft interface on the ONS 15454 ANSI shelf using the craft backplane pins. You can also use a LAN cable connected to the TCC2/TCC2P EIA/TIA-232 port to access a TL1 craft interface.

Note Procedures for installing FlexLayer hardware in this chapter require that you have a network plan calculated for your DWDM network with Cisco MetroPlanner, Release 7.0. Cisco MetroPlanner is a DWDM planning tool that is available your Cisco account representative. Cisco MetroPlanner prepares a shelf plan for each network node and calculates the power and attenuation levels for the DWDM cards installed in the node. For information about Cisco MetroPlanner, refer to the Cisco MetroPlanner DWDM Operations Guide, Release 7.0.

Step 2 Two sets of mounting brackets are included with the DCU mounting kit, one set each for 19-inch (482.6-mm) or 23-inch (584.2-mm) racks. Verify that your chassis is equipped with the correct set of brackets for your rack. Change the brackets as required.

Step 3 Align the chassis with the rack mounting screw holes; one at a time, insert and tighten the four screws.

Step 4 Connect a frame ground to the ground terminal provided on either side of the chassis. Use minimum #14 AWG wire.

Caution Do not remove a TCC2/TCC2P card during the software transfer process, which is indicated by alternate flashing FAIL and ACT/STBY LEDs. Removing a TCC2/TCC2P during the software transfer process will corrupt the system memory.

Note Allow each card to boot completely before installing the next card.

Step 1 Open the latches/ejectors of the first TCC2/TCC2P card that you will install.

Step 2 Use the latches/ejectors to firmly slide the card along the guide rails until the card plugs into the receptacle at the back of the slot (Slot 7 or 11).

Note In Step 4 you will be instructed to watch the LED activity (sequence) on the front of the TCC2/TCC2P card. This activity begins immediately after you close the latches in Step 3.

Step 3 Verify that the card is inserted correctly and close the latches/ejectors on the card.

Note It is possible to close the latches/ejectors when the card is not completely plugged into the back panel of the shelf assembly. Ensure that you cannot insert the card any farther.

If you insert a card into a slot provisioned for a different card, all LEDs turn off.

Step 4 As needed, go to Step a to verify the LED activity on the TCC2 card. For the TCC2P card, go to Step b.

a. For the TCC2 card:

•All LEDs turn on briefly. The red FAIL LED and the yellow ACT/STBY LED turn on for about 15 seconds.

•The red FAIL LED and the green ACT/STBY LED turn on for about 40 seconds.

•The red FAIL LED blinks for about 15 seconds.

•The red FAIL LED turns on for about 15 seconds. All LEDs turn on for about 3 seconds before turning off for about 3 seconds.

•Both green PWR LEDs turn on for 10 seconds. The PWR LEDs then turn red for 2 to 3 minutes before going to steady green.

•While the PWR LEDs are red for two to three minutes, the ACT/STBY turn on.

•The boot up process is complete when the PWR LEDs turn green and the ACT/STBY remains on. (The ACT/STBY LED will be green if this is the first TCC2 card installed, and amber if this is the second TCC2 card installed.)

Note It might take up to 4 minutes for the A and B power alarms to clear.

Note Alarm LEDs might be on; disregard alarm LEDs until you are logged into CTC and can view the Alarms tab.

Note If you are logged into CTC, the SFTWDOWN alarm might appear as many as two times while the TCC2 card initializes. The alarm should clear after the card completely boots.

Note If the FAIL LED is on continuously, see the tip in Step 8 about the TCC2 card automatic upload.

b. For the TCC2P card:

•All LEDs turn on briefly. The red FAIL LED, the yellow ACT/STBY LED, the green SYNC LED, and the green ACO LED turn on for about 15 seconds.

•The red FAIL LED and the green ACT/STBY LED turn on for about 30 seconds.

•The red FAIL LED blinks for about 3 seconds.

•The red FAIL LED turns on for about 15 seconds.

•The red FAIL LED blinks for about 10 seconds and then becomes solid.

•All LEDs (including the CRIT, MAJ, MIN, REM, SYNC, and ACO LEDs) blink once and turn off for about 5 seconds.

•Both green PWR LEDs turn on for 10 seconds. The PWR LEDs then turn red for 2 to 3 minutes before going to steady green. During this time, the ACT/STBY, MJ, and MN LEDs might turn on, followed by the SNYC LED briefly.

•The boot up process is complete when the PWR LEDs turn green and the yellow ACT/STBY remains on. (The ACT/STBY LED will be green if this is the first TCC2 card installed, and yellow if this is the second TCC2 card installed.)

Note It might take up to 3 minutes for the A and B power alarms to clear.

Note Alarm LEDs might be on; disregard alarm LEDs until you are logged into CTC and can view the Alarms tab.

Note If you are logged into CTC, the SFTWDOWN alarm might appear as many as two times while the TCC2P card initializes. The alarm should clear after the card completely boots.

Note If the FAIL LED is on continuously, see the tip in Step 8 about the TCC2P card automatic upload.

Step 5 Verify that the ACT/STBY LED is green if this is the first powered-up TCC2/TCC2P card installed, or yellow for standby if this is the second powered-up TCC2/TCC2P. The IP address, temperature of the node, and time of day appear on the LCD. The default time and date is 12:00 AM, January 1, 1970.

Step 6 The LCD cycles through the IP address (the default is 192.1.0.2), node name, and software version. Verify that the correct software version displays on the LCD. The software text string indicates the node type (SDH or SONET) and software release. (For example: SDH 07.00-05L-20.10 indicates it is an SDH software load, Release 7.00. The numbers following the release number do not have any significance.)

Step 7 If the LCD shows the correct software version, continue with Step 8. If the LCD does not show the correct software version, refer to your next level of technical support, upgrade the software, or remove the TCC2/TCC2P card and install a replacement card.

Refer to the release-specific software upgrade document to replace the software. To replace the TCC2/TCC2P card, refer to the Cisco ONS 15454 DWDM Troubleshooting Guide.

Step 8 Repeat Steps 1 through 7 for the redundant TCC2/TCC2P card. If both TCC2/TCC2P cards are already installed, proceed to Step 9.

Tip If you install a standby TCC2/TCC2P card that has a different software version than the active TCC2/TCC2P card, the newly installed standby TCC2/TCC2P card automatically copies the software version from the active TCC2/TCC2P card. You do not need to do anything in this situation. However, the loading TCC2/TCC2P card does not boot up in the normal manner. When the standby card is first inserted, the LEDs follow most of the normal bootup sequence. However, after the red FAIL LED turns on for about 5 seconds, the FAIL LED and the ACT/STBY LED begin to flash alternately for up to 30 minutes while the new software loads onto the active TCC2/TCC2P card. After loading the new software, the upgraded TCC2/TCC2P card's LEDs repeat the appropriate bootup sequence, and the amber ACT/STBY LED turns on.

Note If you insert a card into a slot provisioned for a different card, all LEDs turn off.

Note Alarm LEDs might be on; disregard alarm LEDs until you are logged into CTC and can view the Alarms tab.

Note It might take up to 3 minutes for the PWR A and PWR B LEDs to update.

Note If you insert a card into a slot provisioned for a different card, no LEDs turn on.

Note If the red FAIL LED is on continuously or the LEDs act erratically, the card is not installed properly. Remove the card and repeat Steps 1 to 4.

Step 5 Return to your originating procedure (NTP).

DLP-G309 Install the MS-ISC-100T Card

Purpose

This task installs redundant MS-ISC-100T cards. The MS-ISC-100T card is required for a multishelf node configuration. It provides LAN redundancy on the node controller shelf. An alternative to using the MS-ISC-100T card is the Cisco Catalyst 2950, although Cisco recommends using the MS-ISC-100T. For more information on the Catalyst 2950 installation, refer to the Catalyst 2950 product documentation.

Note When installing cards, allow each card to boot completely before installing the next card.

Note The MS-ISC-100T is not supported in a subtended shelf.

Step 1 Open the latches/ejectors on the card.

Step 2 Use the latches/ejectors to firmly slide the card along the guide rails in Slot 1 to 6 or 12 to 17 on the node controller shelf until the card plugs into the receptacle at the back of the slot. Cisco recommends that you install the MS-ISC-100T card in Slot 6 and Slot 12.

Step 3 Verify that the card is inserted correctly and close the latches/ejectors on the card.

Note It is possible to close the latches/ejectors when the card is not completely plugged into the backplane. Ensure that you cannot insert the card any further.

Step 4 Verify the LED activity:

•The red FAIL LED blinks for 35 to 45 seconds.

•The red FAIL LED turns on for 15 to 20 seconds.

•The red FAIL LED blinks for approximately 3 minutes.

•The red FAIL LED turns on for approximately 6 minutes.

•The green ACT or ACT/STBY LED turns on. The SF LED can persist until all card ports connect to their far end counterparts and a signal is present.

Note If the red FAIL LED does not turn on, check the power.

Note If you insert a card into a slot provisioned for a different card, all LEDs turn off.

Step 1 To connect the MS-ISC-100T cards to the node controller shelf and set up protection, complete the following substeps (see Figure 1-32). For more information on MS-ISC-100T card port assignments, refer to the Card Reference chapter in the Cisco ONS 15454 DWDM Reference Manual.

Step 1 Using a voltmeter, verify the office ground and power:

a. Place the black lead (positive) on the frame ground on the bay. Hold it there while completing Step b.

b. Place the red lead (negative) on the fuse power points on the third-party power distribution panel to verify that they read between -40.5 VDC and -57 VDC (power) and 0 (return ground).

Step 2 Using a voltmeter, verify the shelf ground and power wiring:

a. Place the black lead (positive) on the RET1 and the red lead on the BAT1 point. Verify a reading between -40.5 VDC and -57 VDC. If there is no voltage, check the following and correct if necessary:

•Battery and ground are reversed to the shelf.

•Battery is open or missing.

•Return is open or missing.

Step 3 Repeat Step 1 and Step 2 for the RET2 and BAT2 of the redundant power supply input.
